Relating to the prohibition of military status discrimination.

SB 2104 amends Texas Labor Code to prohibit employment discrimination based on "military status," which includes current service members, reservists (including National Guard), honorably discharged veterans, and spouses/children of military personnel. The bill adds military status as a protected category in existing anti-discrimination provisions, making it unlawful for employers, employment agencies, or labor organizations to discriminate in hiring, firing, terms of employment, or training programs based on this status. It explicitly preserves existing state and federal veteran preference programs (like those under Section 302.154 or Chapter 657, Government Code). This law directly affects all Texas employers, job agencies, and labor organizations by expanding protections to cover military-affiliated individuals in the workplace.
